Broad beans are best planted in early spring, around 4–6 weeks before the last frost. In milder climates, they can be planted in autumn for an earlier harvest the following year.

Broad beans thrive in well-drained, fertile soil and full sun. They prefer cooler temperatures (13–18°C / 55–65°F) and can tolerate frost once established.

Broad beans need regular watering, especially during dry spells. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.

Common pests include aphids, bean weevils, and slugs. Broad beans are also prone to fungal diseases like downy mildew and rust. Using crop rotation, pest management, and good air circulation helps prevent these issues.

Broad beans typically take around 90–120 days to mature, depending on the variety and growing conditions.

Store broad bean seeds in a cool, dry place in an airtight container to maintain their viability for planting in the following season.

Yes, broad beans can be grown in various climates. They perform well in cool to temperate climates and can even tolerate light frosts once established. In warmer climates, fall planting is recommended.
